Rebecca's First Birthday Party


What a wonderful time I had planning and executing her birthday party! We had it at the church building and it was nice that we did because it gave us plenty of room and we also had lots of fun stuff to do there since the youth group has an air hockey and a foosball table there. I didn't have a particular theme, but I did have all of the decorations in hot pink. I even found her a hot pink tutu to wear that matched with the decorations! She was so stinkin' cute in that thing!!!






I was so proud of myself because I also made her birthday cakes myself. I baked them and decorated them on my own and I think they turned out pretty good for being my first time! We had a yellow cake, a chocolate cake and a red velvet cake so that everyone could have a little variety. I also made the favors myself. They were flower shaped suckers and they turned out really cute! I guess I was feeling kinda crafty! Go me!



Rebecca didn't waste any time grubbing on her cake when it was time for her to eat! She picked up that huge piece of cake and just started stuffing it in her mouth! She was so funny to watch because she knew that everyone was watching her, but she didn't care! She just kept right on eating!



When it was time to open gifts it was a madhouse! Marvin made the mistake of letting the "big" kids help with the gifts and they took full advantage of it! They were tearing through the gifts so fast that no one even knew what she had gotten and who it had come from. I was losing my patience with some of the children there, but I couldn't scold other people's kids when the parents were sitting right there letting them do it! Oh well, in the long run, it didn't really matter all that much! She got a lot of really cute clothes and some toys that she really enjoys and that is all that matters!
